At least four Shias were killed and six others were injured when a suicide bomber blew himself up during evening prayers at the mosque in Qasr-e-Sakina Imambargah (Shia place of commemoration) located on Kurri Road in New Shakrial area of Rawalpindi District on February 18, reported Daily Times. The suicide attack was followed by gun and grenade attack. The blast occurred when suicide bomber blew himself up after security officials stopped him from entering the Imambargah. Jundullah, a splinter group of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), claimed responsibility for the attack. Speaking from an unknown location, the ‘spokesman’ of the group Fagad said that the blast was a reaction to operation Zarb-e-Azb in North Waziristan Agency. Majlis Wahdat-e-Muslimeen (MWM) leader Asghar Askari criticised the Government and alleged that it was colluding with militants. "This is the fourth attack [on the Shia community]; this Government is a murderous and terrorist Government. We have been lifting bodies due to them," he said, adding that the Punjab Government has given support to these terrorists. In an appeal to Army chief General Raheel Sharif he said, "Zarb-e-Azb should be spread to the whole of Punjab." Meanwhile, the initial investigative report of the February 17, 2015 Police Line blast in Lahore District submitted by Inspector General (IG) Punjab Mushtaq Sukhera and Punjab Home Minister Shuja Khanzada to Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif on February 18, revealed that “the bomber intended to attack a police van or a top police official”, reports The Express Tribune. As per the investigative report, the bomber and his accomplices inspected the site of the blast hours before the explosion. The Provincial Police Chief confirmed the Police Lines was the intended target. “The bomber wanted to enter the Police Lines but exploded prematurely,” IG Mushtaq said.

Two suicide attackers on August 16 killed Punjab Home Minister Colonel (retd) Shuja Khanzada and at least 20 other people, after detonating a bomb at a meeting the Minister was attending in the village of Shadi Khan in Attock District of Punjab, reports The News. Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Hazara Circle Shaukat Shah was also killed in the incident. 23 others persons were also injured. Khanzada (71) had been holding a meeting with local people who had come to express their condolences on the death of his cousin. “There were two suicide bombers. One stood outside the boundary wall and the second one went inside and stood in front of the minister,” Mushtaq Sukhera, Provincial Police Chief said. “The blast by the bomber standing outside destroyed the wall which caused the roof to fall on the minister and the people gathered there,” he added. Khanzada used to visit his home every week to listen to the problems of the people of his constituency. Khanzada had been a member of the Punjab Assembly since 2002 and an active member of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
